Try these night-bloomers in your Moon Garden: � Angels trumpet (Datura innoxia) � this viney annual has giant, trumpet-shaped, white flowers. You may need to discipline this rambunctious plant to keep it in line. � Moonflower (Ipomoea Alba) � Related to morning glory, this annual may climb to 10 feet. Tightly closed by day, its white flowers unfurl at dusk to release a lemony aroma. � Four o'clock (Mirabilis jalapa) � In late afternoon, this annual's flowers pop open in often-speckled shades of red, yellow, white or rose. It grows bush-like to 3 feet. � Yucca (Yucca filamentosa) � Flowers of this spiky perennial are open all day, but at night the droopy blossoms lift and release a soapy smell. Hardy in zones 4 to 9. Evening primrose (Oenothera speciosa 'Pink Petticoats') � this fast-spreading perennial is hardy in zones 5 to 9, and its pale flowers release a sweet scent in the evening. Keep a Moon Diary Pay closer attention to the Moon�s influence on you by starting a Moon diary. Select a blank book with white paper. Find out what phase the Moon is in, note it down, and write a few words about your experiences and impressions on that day. Feel free to sketch and doodle to honor your inner inspirational Moon muse. Know that as you express yourself, words are sacred to Thoth, the Egyptian lunar god of knowledge and writing. As you keep this lunar diary through the months, you may discover interesting patterns and important spiritual information.
